Go on then, you bastards. Smear, smear, smear, smear. Smear me with your editorial and by printing the distortions and lies in recent letters about me (annonymous, of course, but I suspect written by your staff following their usual practice). Smear the Labour Party and its leader with your defeatist nonsense. Smear you own student representative with sneering reports and more distortions if they don't follow your pure political line. Smear organisations like Hart, the Peace Conference and students at other universities because they are not "democratic"—we know what that means, don't we? And if your Pink Cardigan Brigade manages to dispose of all its "enemies" where will your Students Association be? What will be left of it?
